But don't you think it's a shame that this board is even necessary? It was created because Dmitry shut down a discussion on the "Silicon Investor - New Feature Discussion" thread, of all places. Actually, Dmitry's intent in issuing the bans was to censor discussion; but it's obvious that strategy blew up in his face. Discussion on the New Feature board is livelier than ever. Most posts are critical of what he has termed "enhancements", and those posts are drawing unprecedented numbers of recommendations. I'd like to think he could turn the situation around. Frankly, I've seen nothing to suggest he has the skill set to do it. Even if he did, I believe his window of opportunity to act has closed. I feel sorry for him, but he has no one to blame but himself.
